Default Re: Whats a good fps with good graphics?

you talkin bout grade 9 provincials? i practically slept through those lol. if you passed those didnt have to take any more. at least here in new brunswick. unless they changed it in the last 5 years since i graduated.

i'm playing with the hl2 mod now that steams done dragging its ***. lookin pretty sharp imo.

and according to the mod maker it can only be made to run on 64bitOS due to some crappy limitations on 32bit OS's.

oh here found it in the readme:

On some 32 Bit systems it is possible to overcome this limitation with some
boot.ini switches for raising the userspace limit. I'm not going into
detail here, because those tweaks are dangerous and should only be done by
people, who are knowing exactly, what they do.
so youd have to download and install the 64 bit version and find some way to get around it on your own. none of that means anything to me so iuno lol

unfortunately it's a bit of a headache to download/install/play

4 files to download, 1GB each , just make sure your connection is consistent, mine wasn't and it would break off the download early and give me corrupt files...

You need 7-zip to extract. I remember just putting all four files in one folder and extracting the first file. I think one problem I had was with the extension of the file names, so make sure those are all proper, follow the ReadMe down to the last letter.

This game was developed for 64-bit Windows, but it plays on 32bit windows just fine, but it crashes sometimes (I've only had it happen on 4-5 loading screens in HL2) You just have to reload it usually once, but somtimes, you'll need to crash/reload several times, I find that quick saving closer to where the crash happens helps. The crashes seemed to happen more so in the Anticitizen One chapter/level. And remember that it is a seperate mod, so you can only load up your save games in the mod and not in regular HL2..

You realize that both World in Conflict and Supreme Commander are RTS's not First Person Shooters...

It really does improve the visuals. The textures look much more 3D and the shadows are amazing. In places it really does look much better than crysis.
